Slowest Trot: Wilson Ramos, Washington Nationals - 27.54 seconds
This isn't another payback trot, like Ramos did to Arizona a couple of weeks ago. No, this trot registers so slow because it is of the walkoff variety, the final piece of a five-run, two-out rally in the bottom of the ninth. Maybe it didn't need a 27-second trot, but it was a home run very much deserving of a celebration.
